How can I share contacts in a specific group

I want to share a specific group of contacts without having to share each of the contacts individually.

iPad
Yes, her contacts show up on her iPad, but only on her iPad
iCloud
She has her own iCloud ID but none of the contacts show up on it because they are in a group called 'Hotmail' and it is impossible on her iPad to change their group to 'iCloud'
Mac
I had already set up an account for her on my Mac, so her iPad is backed up. But when she syncs her contacts to Mail on my Mac, none of the contacts come across, because they are not iCloud contacts.
My question is still how do I get these contacts off the iPad and onto either the cloud or the mac so I can change their group so they sync in future and so that we can send a group email advising her friends and relatives of her change of email address. If this is not possible it means emailing a hundred or so people individually.
How sad that it is not possible on the ipad to select all contacts and assign them to a different group.

Hi,
There does seem to be a presumption in the other reply that your girlfriend is living with you.
A File transfer via Bonjour would then work.
Also the File Sharing in System Preferences > Sharing would cause her computer to show up on your Finder's side bar as a Share.
With iChat if you both have AIM Login names you could still do File Transfers.
(It is slightly more complicated if you have Jabber ID logged in alothough not impossible).

How to add a contact to a specific group in iOS6

Whenever I add a new contact to Contacts (address book), the contact just gets added to default list. Is there an option in iOS6 to add the contact to a specific group within my contacts or to move a contact from one group to another? I know how to do this on my iMac, but do not how to do it on either the iPad or iPhone.

Hi,We are having a problem with one of our users Outlook2013, his Inbox is not showing the count of unread emails.When the PC is booted up you can see the folder flashup with the number of unread emails but then the count quickly disappears. Ihave tried all the solutions mentioned in the below Microsoft Forum, all are temporaryuntil we reboot the PC and start Outlook again, but nothing seems to be permanent.http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/office/forum/office_2013_release-outlook/outlook-2013-inbox-not-showing-count-of-unread/5fc4f9e0-b3b6-4d51-b599-b4a624e8047d?page=1&tm=1436346526332We are using Exchange 2010 with Outlook 2013, so I am unsure if this iscausing the problem.The user has mentioned that when he is looking at the properties of thefolder throughout the day and selects the Synchronization Tab the Server andOffline folder...

How can I share contacts with Android users via the "share contact" button via messaging or otherwise

Appologies in advance if this has been asked before.
I have an iPhone 5/iOS 6. My friend(s) use Android phones. At times, they request a contact I have, but every time I select "Share Contact" via the button in my iPhone's Contact list, either as an Email or Message, they recieve an unusable file format - in other words, it just doesn't get to them. If I manually copy and paste the fields into a txt, they will get the info. Is there an app, or something I need to do differently to be able to share contacts with Android users via the "Share Contact" button in iOS?
Thanks,
Nathan

Shouldn't be an issue here, as the iPhone shares the contact info in standard vCard format.

How to add a contact to a specific group while on the go away from desktop.

I too am frustrated with that. I've come up with a little work around that works for me though so see what you guys think.
I most often run into this right after I have spoken to a prospect about Windsurfing gear and so I immediately want to put them into my Windsurfing gear prospects. I would do this by adding them as a contact and putting windsurf as the company in the contact so that when I got back to my desktop I would do a search for windsurf and add the contacts from that day to the Windsurf group.
Today I discovered, if you go into the specific group, you can click the plus sign at the top right and add a new contact right into that group. Unfortunately you cannot grab their number from recent calls, BUT, you can go to recent calls once you have made this new contact in whatever group you wanted to create it in and click add to existing contact and voila, there ya go.
It could be easier for sure but this works while on the go.
Let me know if it worked for you guys.

How can you share Contacts and use Family Sharing?

Still sharing 1apple ID & 1 iCloud from way back when. Kids were little, syncing was simple... turned off their device iClouds and synced apps, playlist, shows w/ iMac via usb. I loved having my contacts, bookmarks, notes synced via iCloud and it became VERY handy when kid1 got an iPhone (appointments, practices, friends #s w/ ease!) We've recently added a macbook and another iPhone to the mix, we've got music issues & iPads ringing.... so a potential overall may be due?
Now that Family Sharing is here, it's still missing features that we USE:
* Notes (grocery list, packing lists...)
* Contacts (each family member has a 'group' name, they add to their group and the family's master list is 'all contacts' for anyone to access incase of emergencies.... anyone keeping up w/ kids lately?!)
* And the ever present iCloud icon is a looming feature for anyone, any age in the shared-family to be too curious...
* CAN any of these features be added along w/ Family Sharing?
HOW do I set up a simple family sharing system w/o interfering w/ bookmarks, personal notes, FaceTime/msg crossovers :
share our purchases (apps, music from our iTunes/playlists, podcast),
share our calendar
share our contacts
share a family notes
msgs/facetime for each member
mom: iphone, ipad, imac
dad: iphone
kid1: iphone, macbook
kid2: ipad
kid3: ipad
Thanks to anyone that has this set up and will share the method to my madness. Didn't know where to post this, sorry about that.

After having burned the AudioCD from iTunes Menu Advanced choose "Submit Track Names ..."
That will put the data of your CD into CDDB.
It may take between some hour and a few days until it is recognized on a second computer through CDDB.

How can I share a project specific calendar I created on Entourage 2008 ?

How can I share a project specific calendar I created on Entourage 2008 without showing my personal calendar? I created a project specific calendar using Entourage 2008 for Mac. I want to add someone that uses Outlook from a PC. We are in the same exchange network. I have added this person in under the sharing tab, but don't see a way to invite her to view it, and it does not appear on her Outlook list of shared calendars. I was able to invite her to view my main calendar, but not the project specific one. Any suggestions?

If they are iCloud contacts, go to your contacts on icloud.com. There you can create groups and drag and drop contacts to groups.

My husband and I each have iphones, how can we share the contact and calender info we have have in our iclouds with each other?

My husband and I each have an iphone 4S, how can we share the contact and calender info we have in our iclouds with each other?

You can make one or more calendars of one iphone sharable and the other user will be able to have those sharable calanders synced. Unfortunately, you can't do that with contacts. But you could go to the computer account used by you or your husband, perform a backup of the contacts (see the file menu), copy the file to the other account used to sync the other iphone, and restore. It's a manual process that has to be performed periodically, but doable.
The other method is for each of you to use the same iCloud ID and have both iphones synced to be identical. But I don't recommend that otherwise you'll each get the same text messages and who knows what else.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
To begin with, I would like to try to explain Apple's confusing nomenclature in regard to iCloud.
Apple have called the whole cloud thing iCloud, there are a number of features under the iCloud umbrella, some of which require their own login. iTunes is one of these, another is what Apple have unfortunately also called iCloud.
You can use the same Apple ID (account) to login to both iCloud and iTunes, but you don't need to and often users will login to each service using a different ID.
The part that you need to remember is that the services available when you log into iCloud are completely different and unrelated to those when you log in to iTunes. Your iCloud login enables mail, contacts, calendars, find my phone, Back to My Mac, Documents & Data sharing and photosstream, it does not affect any of your iTunes services.
To avoid confusion when discussing your problem, when I mention iCloud, I am referring to the services under the iCloud login, Whereas I will refer to the whole cloud thing as The Cloud.
If only one of you purchases content from iTunes (this includes Books and apps too) then I suggest you use that account for each of you for iTunes only.

How can I share my itunes libraries between two users on different log ins on the same PC?

Ive recently bought my wife and iPhone 4, and we have a shared library. But she clearly downloads her own apps and music choices direct from the store to her phone, so wants to maintain her own log in etc. How can I share the library in my iTunes on my log in on the same PC to her iTunes on her log I'm on the same PC. its windows Xp machine with latest itunes version.
Ive followed the online instructions for sharing thus far, and the share library does not appear in either iTunes. ie It aint working!
Thanks in advance

When you say you have a shared library... you mean you have a networked external hard drive that you are sharing?
In iTunes, generally...when the term Shared Library is used, it's speaking to sharing a specific computer's library over the network with different computer.
I would think it would be better to do what ya'll have been doing (one log in acct/one computer) and have her create her own Apple acct and each of you log in and out whenever purchasing music apps etc. and then setup individual playlists and pick specific playlists to sync with each individual iPhone.
If you don't want each other to know what you're buying then...disregard what I just said
